Triangular LS contest likely in MP with AAP jumping in fray

The party has received a total of 600 nominations for the 29 seats, out of which it has shortlisted nearly 250-275 probables and forwarded it to the central leaders for approval, he said.

However, rubbishing AAP's prospects, senior BJP leader and state unit's former media in-charge Brajesh Lunawat said, “I don't think AAP is going to make any difference in the coming Lok Sabha polls. If at all it has any influence that too is confined to just two to three per cent of total votes in five-six seats.”

“The party may have some support in major cities like Bhopal, Indore, Jabalpur, Khandwa and Mandsaur but the contest will be bipolar only and there is no scope for any triangular contest in the state,” Lunawat said.
